Seahawks Insider

Sorry this all was a bit delayed this morning, I was doing the unenviable task of my 2007 taxes. Ugh.

In any case, I spoke with Nick Greisen's agent, who did not sound optimistic about his client joining the Seahawks. He did not get into many specifics about Greisen's visit or why it was not a good fit, though I suspect it has to do with limited opportunity behind the three LBs already in place. He did not rule out Seattle altogether, but certainly nothing seemed imminent.

Also, this has been posted in several other spots already, but running back Julius Jones is visiting Seattle today, though on the heels of the signing of T.J. Duckett it doesn't make a ton of sense unless Shaun Alexander is quickly on his way out the door. To have Alexander, Maurice Morris, Duckett, Jones, Weaver and potentially a draft pick all in the same backfield just doesn't seem to fit unless Tim Ruskell is stockpiling talent with the thought that you can't have too much.

Jones visited with Tennessee earlier this week.
